THE SUNDAY LAW.
The Order Closing the Drug stores In
Portland.

Portland dispatch says People are still
talking abou. the Sunday order issued by
Marshal Hawkes.. The druggists are not at
all well pleased. They say that about 5000,
and on some hot days, 10000 glasses of soda
water are sold here on Sunday, and the most
OF them have great cigar trade. The
hotels will sell the cigars. but the trade in
soda will go nowhere.
IL Is understooi that the Law and Order
League is backing up the m irshsl vigorously
IF the druggists choose TO resist or to de-
mand strict enforcement of the Sunday laws
they can make the situation very Interesting"
said druggist
The following is the law unde- which the
city marshal acted when he issued his order
closing the drug stores, the grocery stores
and tn saloons on Sunday.
Whoever on the Lords day keeps open
his shop, workhouse, warehouse or place of
business, or trades or does any work, labor
or business on that day, except work of nee
essty or charity, INDUCES in any sport for
games or recreation, or is present at any
dancing, public diversion, show or entertain.
ment, encouraging the same, shall be pun
lshed by fine not exceeding 80 "
If The marshal enforces one section of the
law against the druggists and the liquor
dealers he will be asked to enforce it all.
This would put stop to the island travel, to
the sacred concerts and clambakes and to the
boating and driving, now so prevalent.
Objection is made, it is understood, 20 the
Sunday boating in the harbor, it being
claimed that the oarsmen are doing too much
practicing on that day. This is contradicted
and it is asserted that nothing in the shape of
a boat race was ever known here.
On the other hand il is pointed out that the
camp meetings at Old Orchard andI else
where make the ruu iing of the Sunday train
a necessity.
The druggists held meeting Friday after
noon, and it is said will decide not to ope
their stores on Sunday.

Editor of the Chicago Herald Challenged

Without knowing whsth he was talking about

Foods were humbuggery. DR.. Thompson
walked into his office with $1,000
in his fist, and said if he could not
prove by the leading men and women of Chi
cago. that Moxie would remove the appetite
tor liquors, help nervous exhaustion, all eff
fects from overwork and dissipation at once
without stimulation, reaction, or injury
from long use-and give double powers of
endurance, he would give the money to a
Chicago Orphan Asylum: otherwise the edi-
tor should do the same. After inquiring on the
street, the editor threw up the sponge, and
apologized. The Doctor knows what he has
got. Three lesding papers in New York tried
the same thing, and were beaten.

About DepOtS.


Byron Waters of San Bernardino, at
torney of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail.
road Company, in company with Mr..
Cobeig, the surveyor, in pursuance to
appointment, met the property owners
of whom, they desire right of way, at
Judge Frey's office yesterday afternoon.
Messrs. Rice, Parsons, Meserve, How
land, Ruttan, Crawford and Moody
were present as we'll as Others more or
less interested. 1t is beyond doubt per-
haps, that depot will be located on
Alexander avenue on Mr.. Smiths land,
the main depot with freight house
probably on Meserve's land,
either on a line with the
extension north of the old county road
or further west on the road leading
from DR.. Parsons place direct into town
via the Palomares tract extension of
Carey avenue. Possibly another small
depot will be located further west OH or
near Sallee's place or further west near
Mud Springs--this would make it about
one mile between stations. The A. &
z. people appear willing to do anything
reasonable to accommodate the people
in the way Of depots. No definite con-
clusion was reached. The main point
of difference up to last night was
whether the depot should be located
within 1000 feet west of San An
tonic avenue, or within $500 feet
west. A point on the north line of
Meserve's ranch due north of his house
would mark the 1000 feet limit, the
$500 feet limit would be on Or near the
Parsons road. Messrs. Rice, Parsons
and Meserve contested for $500 feet lin.
it and the other gentlemen for the lesser.
Messrs. Rice, Parsons, A. K. Meserve
and Harry Meserve executed deed to
the company of ten acres for depot pur-
poses at or near the Parsons road, and
also for right of way. last night, we be.
lieve. The other gentlemen, named also
C. f. Loop and +. L. Palmer, signed
agreement for rights Of way, provided
the depot is built within the lesser limit.
They may make compromise of the
difference in some way. The question
arises, how is this depot business going
to effect Pomona! Some have said big
town near Pomona will hurt US; others
that several small towns will injure us
and be of no account them elves. We
believe that neither small towns nor
large ones will injuriously affect Po.
mona. We welcome all the railroads
that can conveniently run through the
valley. In the course OF few years it
will be densely peopled from the hills
on one side to the mountains on the
other. When the Chino ranch is subdi-
vided and Louis Phillips places in the
market, the large remainder of
his lands, they will be quickly bought
up and peopled. The present Pomona
is likely to 90 the largest amount of
freight business because the greatest
scope of producing country is tributary
to it. The depots the A. and P.,
necessarily, will be content with less
than half the local tariff on account of
their high location, their trunk line, Of
course, beiLg the principal consideration
with them in locating as they do. An
increased impetus will be given to i'm.
migration to this section now, and treat
prospective patrons with a considerable
degree of decency.-[Pomona Progress.
